Rain and snow are weather; cold is a surface. When the campus ponds freeze, the water becomes an ice rink: low friction, long carves, spins, and a crack that runs under the blade. A pickup hockey game needs nothing more than a puck and two goals.

How it fits. The water areas are baked and the ground surface already has a support height; ice is a surface material with its own friction and a thin visual layer. The player's movement is a wall-distance walker, so ice is a change to acceleration and turning rather than a new physics body. The audio is the interesting part: blade scrape, cracks, and a muffled world over the ice.

Scope.

  • A temperature and freeze state on water areas.
  • Ice friction and carving, with a stumble when you stop.
  • Visual cracks and a reflection of the sky.
  • A puck and two small goals for pickup hockey.
  • Depends on the weather work landing (#47, #48).

Related. #48 (snow and ice), #91 (water surface), #210 (swimming), #211 (winter bathing).
